The editor "TED" was a feature of the programming column in PC Magazine
during 1988. Unfortunately, I don't have the issue any longer or I would 
give you reference information.

My opinion about "TED":

 1. It was a ".COM" file: therefore not guaranteed to be supported by
    DOS under future releases (MicroSoft is pushing .EXE files!)

 2. The commands, although configurable by reassembling the file, were
    less than obvious.

 3. It would not successfully assemble using the Turbo Assembler, even
    when "quirks" and "masm5.0" switches were enabled.

I would recommend QEDIT from SemWare to anyone looking for a "small"
text editor.  This editor is configurable to look like anything you
could possibly imagine (and some things you couldn't!)...

Anyway, SemWare can be contacted at:

     SemWare
     4343 Shallowford Road
       Suite C-3
     Marietta, GA 30062-5003
                   USA
     Tel: (404) 641-9002

The current version of QEdit is 2.10.  It costs about $50.00... I Highly
recommend it to anyone looking for a FAST CAPABLE text editor!
